Consumer Description

THE IGNITION SWITCH, ON OUR 2000 FORD FOCUS, QUIT WORKING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN A YEAR. THE LAST TIME, I HAD A LOCKSMITH REPAIR IT. NOW IT ISN'T WORKING AGAIN. I "GOOGLED" IT AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH 2000-2003 MODELS BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. I WILL CALL THE LOCKSMITH FOR ANOTHER COSTLY REPAIR BUT WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE LOOKED AT POSSIBLY FOR SOME KIND OF LIABILITY BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY. THANK YOU. *TR
